The Gait Laboratory is dedicated to teaching and research activities at PTHMS for biomechanical analysis of movement and assessment of functional performance in variouskinematic tasks. Some of the research and teaching projects that are being conducted and have been completed include:

• Hipand Knee Kinematics during Jump-Landings in Professional Ballet Dancers
• FunctionalRecovery after Total Hip Arthroplasty
• TrunkControl in Stroke Survivors
• BiomechanicalAnalysis for Wheelchair Propulsion: The Influence of Seat Configuration
• Characteristics for Tricycle Paddling in Toddlers: From the Beginners to Experienced Riders
